Romeo and Juliet never killed themselves, Romeo was exiled and Juliet sadly but willingly married Parris, so she could try to move on with her life. Now, Romeo has snuck back into Verona after 5 years, to come see Juliet one last time. ACT 1 (Juliet is talking with Parris) Parris: How now Juliet, how is't thou such a beauty
For, I have seen not such a divine grace.
Alack, now the nightingale hath sounded
Has't night befallen with such prolixity?
Thou'st rays are shining brighter than the moon.
(Makes small advancement towards her, and touches her arm..Juliet snaps away.) Juliet: Oh Parris, to say truth, I am tired
Fear not, my heart belongs to only one-
Lo-you my kind lord, wilst thou chid'st me not
For I shall take the course of Diana
Parris: Of course, my lady, shant interrupt thee
Farewell, Madame, I shall bid thee good night
Till the lark sounds sharply in the morn, my sweet.
(Paris exits and Juliet walks onto her balcony) Juliet: Years hath passed, yet i still drown in sadness.
Will this sorrow e'er pass- so long waiting!
The happiness gentle Romeo brought-
To me will ne'er be put aside - Never!
the sole passion and love i felt- for him!
How doth one forget her reason to live?
(Starts burying her face in her hands and starts weeping and leaves the room to take a walk in her orchard)
ACT 2
(Juliet is walking through the orchard, unknown to Juliet-Romeo is hiding in a bush and can hear her every word)
Juliet: Romeo O Romeo, where art thou?
How I long to speak with such tenderness
Many tears I have shed for long lost love
Yearning to be touched for a sole purpose-
Love, wilst thou beseech me with thy presence?
Romeo: (to himself) Thy words descend upon me like angels.
Silence not, my love, entertain my heart
Juliet: Since everyone doth betray me-even nurse!
Who shall I look to for guidance, love, care?
Tis fate proves to be one much worse than death.
( Juliet turns around and sees Romeo crying and looking at her) * some lines may not be in pentamer..as the character will be feeling a strong emotion which causes him to be out of character. Romeo: Oh, how I had feared I was no longer the god of thee idolatry.
I have longed for thy wondrous kiss-
I have known no love other than that between us. ( Juliet runs into Romeo's arms and they share a passionate kiss) Juliet: My love, I feel as if i had been trapped in a dark tomb for ages
Without you-my heart has withered
Romeo: Then hence I shall take thee to Mantua
The next morn when the lark sounds
We shall set off on ye journey
I shall set thee free

We had the same idea! :)
Line 5: Might want to change moon to stars because i feel like the moon dosent really "shine" it more captures the suns light whereas the stars are always up there twinkling away.
Line 9: JULET IS A VIGRIN?? LOVE IT! Thats an awesome idea because it really shows how much she must hate Paris. But then why would Paris marry her if she can't have sex and thats all people do to get married?
Act II Line 1: THIS LINE IS AMAZING! I like it because its what everyone THINKS Juliet is saying when she says "Wherfore art thou Romeo?" and then you made it into what it actually is!
Is this the end? i want to read more! Kind of left off at a cliff hanger there, you should maybe just continue it on 2 more lines between Romeo and Juliet, just so we who juliet picks to trust and what Romeo winds up doing.
Other than that, i am blown away. THis was absolutely wonderful. So many big words that you managed to fit into Iambic Pentameter. Flows very nicely off the tongue. REALLY nice job!

This is great, but I think you should continue it because ends a bit awkwardly. But this sounds very shakespearean :)

Your use of vocab is stunning. This story was amazing. I like how you ended it. That moment was too emotional for words. Maybe you could just have them embrace each other in the end.
